| IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy2Grp/Desc | 0 | CARE (Improving Medical Care): The Organization (PMSF) ensures that individuals with Phelan-McDermid syndrome have access to a robust community of specialists and evidence-based care. We bridge the gap between research and clinical practice by educating professionals, facilitating medical consultation, and expanding our specialized clinical infrastructure. In 2025, we strengthened this ecosystem by establishing our first 11 Phelan-McDermid Syndrome Clinics-including a new multidisciplinary center at Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center-and launched initiatives to grow our Healthcare Provider (HCP) network. Our experts facilitated 22 neuropsychiatric consultation cases, 15 neuropsychiatric referrals, and 50 genetic counseling referrals. Additionally, we served as a primary medical hub, recording over 100,000 views on pmsf.org and overseeing 3,500 downloads of clinical and educational resource documents. |

In 2025, our grant committee awarded the Shannon O'Boyle Memorial Grant to Dr. Jonathan Santoro (Children's Hospital of Los Angeles) to advance vital neuropsychiatric biomarker research. We expanded the PMSF DataHub to 1,500 consented participants and 1,400 curated genetic reports, creating an invaluable resource for pharmaceutical and clinical partners. Furthermore, we directly facilitated participation in the Developmental Synaptopathies Consortium natural history study by providing travel reimbursements to 24 families. Our commitment to global knowledge-sharing was underscored by the PMSF podcast, which experienced 500% growth and reached audiences in 30 countries. |
